The center of family fun in Kansas City

Crown Center has so much to offer families! Not only are festivals held here throughout the year, but you'll find free movies on Friday evenings during the summer and ice skating in the winter. Shopping ranges from the upscale (at Hall's) to kitch, and restaurants cater to practically every taste you could desire. (Don't miss Fritz's Railroad Restaurant where the food is delivered by train!) Free family fun can be found at Kaleidoscope, where kids can make all types of crafty items, and at Union Station- just across the street- for train watching and model trains. LegoLand Discovery Center, SeaLife Aquarium, the science center and WWI Museum and Memorial are all right here too. Two hotels are also attached- making this a perfect one-stop family getaway!

Great place for Families to Visit

Crown Center was designed to be a gathering place for families. From great family dining like Fritz's Railroad Cafe- where your food is delivered by train!- to the Crayola Cafe to the fun free attractions like the Hallmark Visitor's Center and Kaleidoscope, you'll find fin for the family at every turn. With new attractions LegoLand Discovery Center and SeaLife Aquarium, annual festivals and summer movie nights in the plaza and a skywalk to Union Station (and it's terrific science center), this is a great family destination.

Tips for Families
